As long as I didn’t have to interact with the housekeeping staff and room service, it was a lovely and memorable stay. B
Pros:

The location, the view of the Harbour, the cleanliness, the Comfortable and cozy beds.

Cons:

The housekeeping staff are far from polite, they kept barging into my room without knocking, and amenities, such as hand wash we’re not replaced. They even came into my room while I was out and took away my spare key for the room.
When ordering room service, the person at the other end was rather impatient and couldn’t wait to hang up the phone before I had finished ordering. He never confirmed my order before hanging up, and I had to keep telling him that I wasn’t done yet. In the end, I didn’t bother asking for anything else, and just let him hang up. Caesar salad, which I ordered along with some green vegetables and herbs for all drenched in cream and dressing, for the extent that I have to to the bathroom to rinse them off the salad. Needless to say, I never ordered room service again for the rest of my usual stay.
